So, I've been using the Windows 8 Release Preview since it came out, almost exclusively (except for work, since I'm obviously not going to rely on unfinished and untested software for that). I already knew I could get into Metro on my 11.6" ZenBook, but on my 24" desktop, things aren't looking as rosy. Here's an illustrated guide of the most pressing issues I run into, and five suggestions to address them. Instead of just complaining, let's get constructive.

The upside of all of this is virtually all the Pundits even those like Foley, Thurrott and Dvorak that butter their bread with pro Microsoft journalism think Microsoft has truly 'screwed the pooch' with Metro on the desktop.

Yea you would think that might be a wake-up call, and people have been pointing this out but Sinofsky & company (including Nelson) have chosen to dig in just like Baghdad Bob. Sinofsky will have to have his legs blown off by a tank shell before his ego even considers that he might be slightly off on this one.
